Happy National Underwear Day 2009!

It's the 7th annual celebration of all things under-clothes brought to us by the fine folks at Freshpair.com. I run a non-commercial blog, but, let's give proper credit where it's due.



They're trying to do more of a month-long, on-line celebration this year for those of us who can't make it to their runway show in New York City's Times Square. Even though it's been moved inside, enjoy a mix of a few pictures from years past:





Barely There is one of the participating brands, not her pleasant state if undress; though it again proves 'the touch, the feel, the fabric of our lives' can be a very nice one. While Googling around, I found this 2006 picture of a Trends Analyst from a Cotton, Incorporated press release. Do you think this woman looks forward to going to work at least one day of the year? I do.



News this year? An age-old question has pretty much been decided, as explained by Freshpair.com's president, Michael Kleinmann, talking about the results of their latest survey: "the boxers or briefs debate has been put to rest with three times the number of men choosing briefs over boxers. For women, bikini briefs are the most popular style."




Not that my girlfriend and I have to follow the latest trends, but it's nice to know we were actually ahead of the curve in our personal choices some years back.

BTW- Mr. Kleinmann would be the lucky (clothed) guy below who thought of this annual Day in the first place. No fool, he.



Now- go forth! Celebrate National Underwear Day by wearing something special under your clothes (especially if someone special can see it later) or by buying some special panties for yourself or a loved one. The holiday, after all, comes but once a year. And, check out L ingerie Blog's coverage of years' past.
